Yahoo in the rough

The once popular search engine in the 90s has gone through a steady decline; Yahoo is having a hard time. The Los Angeles Times mostly blames Yahoo's CEO, Carol Bartz for the gradual down-spiral of the website, whose stocks have fallen 15% in this year alone. However, according to USA Today, the struggle can be to having a difficult time trying to keep up with new booming websites such as Facebook and Google, which are the two dominating companies as of this moment. Twitter is also another company that is trying to keep up with top websites by pushing its advertisement spots hard on companies, says New York Times. If you want to have a successful website, then providing its advertisement services seems to be the best definition of it. Google and Facebook seem to dominate well, all while Twitter is beginning to follow in its footsteps and Yahoo is struggling.
